but I do certainly like it! Found on the 'weapons' board of that certain infamous place of the internets. The whole concept of the ironclad with side-turrets is interesting in itself; looks like something freshly out of a steampunk novel.
The thread where I found it contained more images of similar ships, I believe they are real and are pre-dreadnought ironclads; one image named one, the 'Charles Martel' of France which has the same featuers (bent sides and side-turrets).
a real sea-monster!
ReplyDeleteyou're sure that it exists or it's just a "fake"?

DeleteWell - this is not a fake. It's a photo of the French battleship 'Bouvet'.

Thanks for the info! Not a bright career for the poor ship.
